Trump without citing any evidence: "I'm hearing that more and more African Americans are supporting our Republican policy agenda, because they see the results that we're delivering."

(14,627 posts)Trump explains that he was advised not to say these things about African Americans, but it was true. Sometimes, he says, he'd take the "hell" out so the "fake news" wouldn't say he used a bad word, so he'd just say "what do you have to lose."
Trump, at an HBCU, proudly recounts his 2016 campaign rhetoric: "Highest crime rate, African American -- highest crime rate. Worst housing situation. Lived in the worst areas. Everything was bad. Worst education." He notes he said, "What the hell do you have to lose? I said it."

(723 posts)The church massacre in Charleston, SC happened at the Church that is my family, (paternal), attended. I don't know if you're AA or have AA friends/loved ones but for this demented piece of sh*t to claim that We are supporting him more & more, in spite of his nonsensical statements excusing the neo nazis, racists & facists should show EVERYONE that's he's either a f*cking incompetent lunatic, light years more ignorant than reagan or BOTH!
He thinks that black folks love him because of those 2 overweight & GHETTO jackasses, (I'm sure the fact that they BOTH look like a typical bigot's stereotypical wet dream Aunt Jemimah is PURELY & simply a coincidence ), Rhinestone & Burlap, CZ & Cheesecloth or whatever the f*ck they're called & the other AA dude on Twitter, (IGNORANT AS F*CK, BTW). The ratbastard has probably forgotten that they're PAID to put on the daily minstrel show.
My family is VERY diverse & my hubby is Czech...& he HATES Mango McLemonade with a purple passion & PLEASE don't get me started on my Greek, Native, Asian & Arabic cousins cuz I don't want to be banned from DU...it's THAT bad!!
